Does everyone edge scroll or use the arrows?
I'm finding the edge scrolling with the mouse to be really cumbersome. I'm so used to wasd scrolling. Do people mostly use the mouse or the arrow keys for scrolling? I feel like I have to drag my mouse most of the way across my mousepad to see anything.

I use the map or mousewheel, scrolling to the edge of the map or using arrows feels slow and clunky to me.

I cant get used to middle mouse button. Its diffrent than any other game:
The cursor vanishes and dont move in this time, which is very unintuitive.

Then i tried AWSD, But it feels like somekind of input lag, so i refund. I will wait till they fixed this problems.

I bound camera to WASD as everything else just feels unnatural to me.
middle mouse panning is easily the best way to move the camera once you're used to it. it's faster and snappier than using the keyboard and also frees up the keys for doing other stuff.

Yeah it took me a while to get used to it.

Almost exclusively middle mouse button panning. For longer jumps it's either using control groups to snap the camera or ocassionally clicking on the minimap. Scrolling with arrow keys or WASD feels super clunky to me because of the set speed it comes with in other games I've played

Edge scroll + clicking on hotspots on the map

I recommend you try lovering the keyboard pan speed setting to 75% then it feels less clunky for me with the WASD

Well, middle mouse button has its own problem - pushing down the middle mouse button on a Logitech G502 is a recipe for a repetitive stress injury. I usually rebind any middle mouse activity to button 5. Unfortunately this game doesn't easily allow me to change mouse scrolling in the hotkey controls so I'll have to do it via some external software.

I usually use double tapping hotkeys to center on units / buildings. Then I edge scroll for finer adjustments.

I edge scroll and use hotkeys. I can have more control over fights witch control groups.
